Case ID CAS-19926990-B6K0M2

I can't believe what's happening to me right now, it's been over a month since I ordered my drone and everything has gone wrong.

On December 26th, I ordered a Mini 4K drone. Unfortunately, the drone arrived broken due to a faulty power system. The provided instructions for replacement service required me to return all equipment, including the packaging, battery, remote control, spare propellers, and everything else in the original box. I followed these instructions and returned the package promptly.

The replacement drone arrived on January 21st. However, the package only contained the drone itself, and I suspect it may be a refurbished unit. To my further dismay, I received another package the following day, which only contained the SD card that I had forgotten to remove from the original drone.

On January 22nd, I contacted DJI customer support to inquire about the missing components of my replacement order. I was informed that they would be shipped separately and that I would receive an email with tracking information shortly.

I waited two days without receiving any communication from DJI and called again on Saturday. I was then told that a special team needs to investigate the issue and that I would receive a response within 1-2 business days. Today is the fourth business day since my initial call and the second business day since my most recent call, and I have yet to receive any resolution or communication.

This prolonged delay and lack of communication are causing me significant concern. I am particularly worried about the following:

  • Warranty Concerns: If the second drone is also defective, it will be beyond the 15-day replacement window, and the warranty may require me to utilize my DJI Care Refresh plan.
  • Difficulty Obtaining a Refund: I am unable to return the product and receive a full refund because I do not have all the original components in my possession.

I am beginning to feel that DJI has taken my money and is not providing adequate customer service or resolving the issues I am facing. I am unable to initiate a chargeback because I used a gift card and no longer have the card or the receipt.

Based on an internet search, my only recourse may be to file a complaint with the U.S. Department of Commerce and my state representives. I'm so sad right now, I never had customer service this bad.

Is there anyway to start the process of getting my money back? I don't even want the drone anymore at this point. I ordered a new drone and was sent back a refurbished drone.

Update: I checked the box and it doesn't say it includes the remote, batteries, or anything else. The package also didn't come in plastic wrap, leading me to the conclusion that it's a refurbished unit. Case ID CAS-19926990-B6K0M2

I also contacted support again today and  upper level managment is supposed to call me back within 24hrs

It's been almost 2 months and the case still isn't resolved and I now have 2 case numbers (CAS-20288456-B8D3C5/CAS-19926990-B6K0M2). I spoke with a supervisor about 3 weeks ago and she said they would approve a refund when I sent the drone back.

I mistakenly sent the drone back with a previous label from DJI, so it's not attached to the right tracking number. But the drone did arrive at the warehouse

At this point I would like just to receive my drone back, I dont care about the remote, batteries, or the refund because it'll never happen.

Please someone help
